Lori and her husband, Mossimo founder Mossimo Giannulli, allegedly paid $500,000 in bribes to get their daughters into USC.

The couple reportedly paid the money to ensure their kids — Isabella Rose, 20, and Olivia Jade, 19 — could attend the University of Southern California "under the guise that they were recruits for the school’s rowing team," The Cutreports.

(Spoiler: Isabella and Olivia never participated with the rowing team.)

Lori and Mossimo are among 50 people involved in the scam who, collectively, paid upward of $25 million for their kids to scam the system and get into the colleges of their choice. They reportedly gave money to William "Rick" Singer and his team who would doctor photos and documents to place kids on athletic teams, would have someone take college entrance exams, and even go as far as having SAT and ACT grades changed.

The Hallmark star was taken into custody Wednesday after turning herself in to the FBI.

"I don't know how much of school I'm gonna attend," the teen said in the video, Entertainment Tonight reports. "But I'm gonna go in and talk to my deans and everyone, and hope that I can try and balance it all. But I do want the experience of, like, game days, partying … I don't really care about school, as you guys all know."

Lori Loughlin has since deleted her social media accounts, with her daughter Isabella making hers private. Olivia, however, did not.

Well, it looks like she removed the ability for people to comment on her latest posts but seemingly forgot to turn it off for all the others — exposing herself to unwanted criticism from people who have an issue with her family in light of the scandal.

And boy is she paying for it.

Critics discovered Olivia didn't block comments on a February 10 post and decided to chime in, accusing the 19-year-old of being "too dumb" to get into USC on her own and without help. They also poked fun at Lori's arrest and need to post $1 million bail.

People outraged over the scam are letting Olivia have it, going as far to call her a "disgrace."

When we say some of these comments are out there, believe us. The fact that anyone would bring up the death penalty, of all things, is pretty nuts.

It also doesn't help Olivia was spotted on a USC official's yacht when the scandal broke.

Olivia was enjoying spring break on a yacht in the Bahamas with Gianna Caruso, daughter of billionaire Rick Caruso, who also happens to be the Chair of the Board of Trustees and Executive Committee of the University of Southern California, Peoplereports.

"My daughter and a group of students left for spring break prior to the government’s announcement yesterday," Rick, who owns the yacht, recently said. "Once we became aware of the investigation, the young woman decided it would be in her best interests to return home."

love these people 💓 birthday vlog went up on Tuesday 🤗 www.youtube.com/oliviajadebeauty

We never expected to hear Aunt Becky is involved in a college scam. It's so crazy and random. We have no idea how this will all pan out, but regardless of how anyone feels, going after her daughter to ridicule her isn't the way. We can hold opinions without taking time out of our day to be so dang nasty.

Crazy-busy traveler Kim Kardashian has been keeping a low-profile at home after the birth of her baby girl, North West, in June, but apparently she’s already planning her next move: accompanying Kanye on the European leg of his world tour.

A family friend said Kim “loves the buzz of taking 10 flights in three days,” but Kourt wants her sister to put the baby’s well-being first. “Kim does whatever she wants, and she’s always been self-centered,” said the source, “so Kourtney’s been disappointed so far.” Ouch.
